Flower Color Guide

This book is exactly what I needed since starting a career in floral design and needing a solid reference book. This book has it all: floral identification, colors available, seasons best for harvest, and personally best of all the way a flower is/can be used (face, filler, gesture, ect). Another wonderful thing for this book is when a costumer (most often a bride) would like a particular flower for an arrangement we can go through the book together to pick something out which makes its organization by color perfect in these situations. My only criticism is that the book is too small in height and length, it makes the perforated section almost useless for me. I thought it would be better to have the "flashcards" for customers to browse through as they wait or chat and coworkers to keep at their stations, but the book's size has the pictures too small for identification, nice for a color swatch but that's pretty much it. Don't get me wrong though, the rest of the book's pictures are wonderfully captured, well light, and detailed to help ANYONE find the perfect flowers for them! While this isn't the book to teach you how to design it's an excellent stepping stone for those that are interested in the world of cut flowers or simply enjoy looking at them!

I LOVE this book- it's such a perfect resource for artists. I use it for color palette reference, photo-real research on flowers, plus the book is great for turning sideways and using as a reference for abstract composition (the flower stalks turn into beautiful lines for an abstract landscape). The photos are gorgeous, clear, perfectly lit, and the colors are true to life- there is no "tweaking" of saturation which is good when you are really trying to gauge the true-life color of a flower and so many resources and photo collections of flowers are really saturated. My only issue is that the book is TINY (5x7" a little bigger than a photograph/postcard)- I though it would be quite a bit bigger, but it's kind of like this little manual. It makes the book easier to carry and store and flip through, but I love looking at details of the flowers and really seeing the colors right where the stem meets the petals (there are some gorgeous colors happening in the tiniest details of plants...) and those details are hard to see at such a small size. I'd love a larger version of this book- even though it would be cumbersome and take up a lot of shelf and easel real-estate, it would be worth it for larger images of these beautiful flowers.

How not love this Flower Color Guide? This book is fantastic! very practical, small, but convenient. Have a cut of flowers sheets on the back, so cute, the image of each flower and the information about them. it's perfect! What I would like to have on this book, is for each color, a sheet with the color name on it. For example, on white flowers, at the front of it, a sheet with the name "white" and for the other colors flowers too. This is my humble opinion.

Nice book, great value and price. I use it as a photo reference for painting so its a great size and easy to travel with.

Loved the book. It's sad it came damaged. Not sure if was the delivery. But still frustrating to have riped pages in a new book.

I’ve wanted this for a while to help provide inspiration for my watercolor floral painting. So glad I purchased! The photos are clean and crisp and so great for studying color and composition! I love that the flowers are ordered by color and in the back there are perforated miniature cards with each flower on them that can be removed. Not sure how I’ll use this yet but I love having the option to remove them as needed and maybe use for travel, etc. they also have all the info for each floral such as the name, color, and it’s use (spiller, filler, etc.).

Cool book to have, bonus points for removable ‘test’-cards in the back!☺️ This is on me, but I believed the book to be bigger; check the size🤠

A useful guide to reference during the design phase as preparation for ordering floral materials. Organized by color, it identifies over 400 flowers and greens to feature in arrangements. Quite helpful for those who have a particular color or shape in mind, but don't know the name of a plant which fits the bill. Should be a helpful addition to any floral enthusiast's library -- DIY or professional!

Excelente libro para quienes están estudiando o ejerciendo la floristería y a todos aquellos que les gusten las flores

Lovely flower pictures - well lit - shadows spars

as a amateur florist, i can’t be thankful enough to have it

The quality is very nice and the pictures are clear

Filled with over 400 high quality photos of gorgeous flowers! I am an artist and so far this us the best flower reference book I have ever had my hands on! I was surprised that it was smaller than what I expected yet the quality is totally worth it!
